FIFA 12 starts 2012 as it ended 2011, sitting at the top of the All Formats All Prices UK video game chart, despite a 63 per cent drop in sales.
Battlefield 3, also down 63 per cent, benefits from bigger falls elsewhere to climb two places to No.2, followed by Modern Warfare 3 at No.3, Just Dance 3 at No.4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim at No.5.
New Year health kicks have given a boost to the Zumba franchise, with the original game up 11 per cent to No.6, whilst the sequel jumps 16 places to No.12. EA Sports Active 2 climbs to No.20 and Wii Fit Plus is a Top 40 re-entry at No.27.

With no new titles hitting stores and consumers tightening their belts after Christmas spending it’s no surprise to see sales dropping considerably this week. There is some relief in the form of Friday’s 3DS release of Crush 3D, but we can’t see the puzzler performing any better than a Top 20 place.
